abstract = "The study of human brain functions has dramatically
increased in recent years greatly due to the advent of
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging. This paper
presents a genetic programming approach to the problem
of classifying the instantaneous cognitive state of a
person based on his/her functional Magnetic Resonance
Imaging data. The problem provides a very interesting
case study of training classifiers with extremely high
dimensional, sparse and noisy data. We apply genetic
programming for both feature selection and classifier
training. We present a successful case study of induced
classifiers which accurately discriminate between
cognitive states produced by listening to different
auditory stimuli.",
